Technology in service of people.

For those who want to understand why and how Runtheons works: the role of artificial intelligence, the training method, the integrations and the limits of our models.

How we work

The role of AI

AI organizes information, suggests and adapts the plan, and talks with you. It does not replace the judgment of a professional.

A model of the human body

At the core is a digital twin: a physiological model that knows how the body works. This is why Alfred adapts to every Olympic sport and to each person’s specifics, without a separate program for each discipline.

Personalization

Every plan starts from your context: goal, level, available time, preferences and feedback.

Training methodology

Plans built around goals, with gradual load progression, alternation between work and recovery, and a variety of stimuli. The body is read as a system: training, recovery, stress and nutrition influence one another.

Integrations

Garmin, Polar, Suunto, Whoop, Apple Watch, Apple Health and Bluetooth heart rate straps, only if you choose to connect them. Session export in FIT format.

Control over your data

You decide which optional data to share, and you can withdraw your consent at any time.

Security

Technical and organizational measures described on the dedicated page, reviewed by Legal and Security.

Predictive models and digital twin

Useful, not infallible.

Some features use models that estimate how you respond to training, for example to adjust load and recovery. They are tools to support training decisions.

They are not clinically validated and do not provide diagnoses, prevention or medical assessments. Estimates have a margin of error and depend on the quality of the available data.

The models use your training history, the feedback you give after each session and, if you connect them, wearable data. The more data there is, the more reliable the estimates become; with little data, Alfred is deliberately more cautious.
